Abstract

Bullock, buffalo, cow and ox are commonly used as draught animals in developing south and south east Asian and some African countries. In most situations, draught animals are a more appropriate power source for the farmers. Traditionally a yoke is used to take off power from the animal' neck. Compared to tractor power very little work has been done on animal draught power and harnessing systems, their design and testing, and the economics of using draught animals. Some of the recent work on animal draught power and harnessing systems are mentioned and potential of research areas are identified.
